LAYOUT |
|
While the layout remains
classic, the salon presents a
space and shape studied
carefully to associate
practicality with ergonomics.

Beneteau’s commitment is to the continued
evolution of the sailing product with the 440 at
the leading edge. This time the emphasis has
been both technology and styling, by relocating
the helm station (steering wheel) from the back
of the boat to the center above the salon. A
technological breakthrough, as you are in fact
moving the center of gravity requiring much
larger sails. Ergonomically, this creates so
much more space to move around the boat, as the
ropes from the Genoa (the front sail) tie back
to the winches on the top rather than the side
of the boat.
Two other improvements are the extended seating
at the helm station (room for six), and the
addition of a forward cockpit seating area,
which will be a tremendous spot to enjoy and
feel the motion of the boat while under sail.
The interior salon has the distinctive “lagoon”
360 panoramic view, and is directly accessible
to a second (exterior) salon through sliding
glass doors. Featured in the main salon are a
comfortable L-shaped sofa and chairs, music and
video, a built in bar, and a full galley
kitchen. The guest cabins are particularly well
appointed with queen beds, ample drawers and
closets, and - each with an adjoining private
bathroom. All of the cabins and the interior
salon are individually air-conditioned.
The exterior salon is the perfect spot for
cocktail hour and dinning, enjoying the sights
and sounds of the Caribbean slowly saying -
goodnight.
